The UH football team took a
trip during the 1968 Homecoming game and before they settled
back down to reality the Tulsa
Hurricane had been demolished
by a heady 100-6 score.
The Cougars got off to a
relatively slow start, scoring
only 24 points in the first half.
But the action gradually picked
up as 27 points were scored in
the
the third quarter and 49 in
fourth.
In his last Dome appearance
Paul Gipson scored three TDs
and rushed for 282 yards on 29
carries. UH scored 14 TDs, eight
of them on the ground.
In their murderous rout of
Tulsa UH became the only
modern day major college to
score 100 points against another
major college grid opponent.
